Leveraging Business Capital for Change

When I invest in things I'm really trying to look at how do businesses and organizations because I believe that when we invest in something it's just as valuable whether we're investing in a business or investing rather than donating to an organization it's all an investment in the future to me so I'd like to see businesses that I feel can get ahead of the issues and deal with root issues before they become full blown issues that then are really really hard to work with and we are dealing with so many of those things right now I like to invest in regional opportunities and BC and Canada I have a lot of opportunities I have a lot of contacts in the States but I am now choosing to focus my investment funds here because I don't think that there are as many Investors in Canada and I think that Canada has a really really bright future for new kinds of ventures and businesses I like to invest in women owned and women led businesses and local businesses as I said before I'd like to invest in businesses that I feel are trying to find ways to reduce the footprint that we as a culture have it's important to me to have a value's match number one with the person that I'm investing with now I have a lot of investments that are kind of pre-vetted so I'm mostly already seeing the kinds of businesses that are values match for me and content match for me as well and so that’s mostly how I’m working with things but it needs to be someone that I feel is credible and can deliver on what they are saying and I’m more interested in them being able to try to get this off the ground
